*Saturday Morning*

"Come on baby. Wakey wakey." He coos kissing my cheek. I groan. "Five more minutes Jackie." He hums. "Baby that's five minutes we don't have." I don't say a word hoping eventually he will take the hint. I feel his lips ghost over my ear. "Sadie is having breakfast with Jessica and it may be our only free time for awhile." I groan.

"Can't we just cuddle like normal couples." He kisses my cheek. "Of course but you could show me some affection." I roll to face him. I peck his lips before letting my body roll into his laying my head in his neck. "Better?" He huffs. "You know what, sleep. It's fine." He says getting up.

"Jackie..." I whine. "I hope you enjoy your time to sleep in." He says before exiting. I huff rolling out of bed in a baggy black bleach stained T-shirt and a pair of shorts. "Jackie..." I sigh heading down the stairs. "Jackson." I say stepping off the last step. "Go back to sleep. Isn't that what you wanted?" He asks pouring a cup of coffee.

I step over to him pressing my body to his back wrapping him in my arms. "Jackson I'm sorry okay? I'm tired. I'm not used to looking after someone with such a short attention span. This jobs got me whipped. I'd love to have us time even if I had to watch documentaries but I'm just so tired lately." He sets his cup down. "You are really that tired?" I nod. "I fell asleep yesterday eating a muffin that I had been craving for so long." He turns sharply to me. "Baby you don't think..." I shake my head. "No no. It doesn't feel like an abnormal tired besides we've been very careful since Sadie got here." He kisses my head. "Let's buy a test anyways. I'd rather be safe. I wouldn't want you or me hurting it if there is a baby in there." I nod softly.

"Does this mean I'm forgiven?" He pecks my lips. "I wanted some us time baby but maybe until we get the test we should put off sex." I nod falling into his chest. "Will you make me cereal?" He nods. "Sure." I watch as he makes it laying my head on his back. He turns setting it on the island. I climb up the still and he pushes it towards me. "Is it cold in here to you?" He shakes he's head reaching out to touch my head. "You don't feel warm. You know what I think you should take the test before we go back to Santa Monica. I can run up to the Quickie Mart and get one okay?" I nod softly. "Stay in bed once you're done. I'll ask Jess if she can keep Sadie a bit long." I kiss him softly. "I love you." He hums with a huge smile. "I couldn't love some one more baby." He places his hand on my cheek and I feel his cool band. I smile finishing my cereal as he grabs the keys leaving.

I eventually get up putting my bowl in the sink and head upstairs to dive under the covers. I check my calendar and gasp slightly. "No no..." I'm two weeks and four days behind on my period. I let the tears well as I match the dates. I gasp harshly again. I click contact calling Jackson.

"What's wrong baby girl?" I let the tears fall. "I-I'm late and remember when we had sex on my birthday?" He hums. "It ugh...it was roughly...one month two weeks and four days ago." He doesn't say anything at first. "Baby...how late are you?" I sob into my hands. "T-two weeks." He pauses. "Baby please calm down okay? It's gonna be alright. I'm getting in the car now. I'll be back In twenty minutes tops but probably sooner then that. Just take a breath." I do nodding though he can't see me. "Okay. I love you." He whispers. "I love you too." We hang up and I toss my phone trying to calm my sobs. This can't be happening.

"Baby I'm back!" I sit up as he walks in. "Teagan..." I'm sitting on the bed under the covers with my arms wrapped around my legs looking out at the balcony. "I'm scared..." I whisper. He sits taking my hand. "Why?" He asks softly like he might startle me if he speaks any louder. "A two year old and a baby. Can you take that?" He drops the bag on the floor reaching out to turn my face to him. "Oh baby this is my family now. I'm not trapped. I'm willingly here. Because I love you and I love our little Kola. Maybe a baby Kola won't be so bad. Even if it ever becomes to much to handle...listen to me...I'll never leave you. If there's a baby in there what's done is done and we'll figure it out. We always have. Maybe before we have this talk completely we should see if there is in fact a baby."
